Depression is a clinical diagnosis that goes beyond "just having the blues" for a couple of weeks. Under a physician's care, counselling is indicated as the best treatment alongside medication and/or lifestyle changes. If you are struggling with the symptoms of depression due to a diagnosis of Major Depression; Bipolar depression; Postpartum depression, or Seasonal Affective Depression Disorder (SADD), I use an approach to meet your needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy; Dialectical Behavior Therapy; Depth psychology, Expressive Arts Therapy, and Narrative approaches are beneficial modalities that support the resolution of symptoms of depression.

I use techniques Cognitive Behaviour Techniques to establish patterns of depressive symptoms and how they impact differing areas within our lives. Using these techniques I can work supportively with the client to examine the basis of the depressive symptoms and include them in building behaviour management strategies that will help decrease the specific impact within the identified areas of their life. I am able to work with support networks within the life of the client to help with building a strong network of support to encourage wellness and manage risk.

Many people experience periods of depression in their life time. There are different types and they are diagnosed and treated differently. Situational depression may be caused by a traumatic event or life change, can be resolved with time, is more common than clinical depression, and appears to have a smaller impact on day to day life. Talk therapy can treat it on its own. Clinical Depression is often longer term and chronic, more difficult to treat, can be connected to brain chemistry differences, interferes with daily functioning, and is often treated with both therapy and medication. If you want to learn more about your mood and how we can help, book a free consultation.

Depression results from a chemical imbalance in the brain. It is not the result of a personal weakness or lack of coping skills. The impairment is real and can result in feeling sad, anxious, overwhelmed and in some cases suicidal. Fortunately, depression can be treated with both medication and counseling; the combination usually being most effective. Counselling can help persons who experience depression in providing an outlet for voicing frustrations and obstacles, identifying support avenues, leaning new coping skills and exploring the most recent avenues of treatment. Counselling offers a non-judgemental and confidential sounding board.

Depression can be deeply painful, robbing you of energy, motivation, and hope. It creates a negative view of life, your self, and your future. It typically disrupts sleep patterns, appetite, emotions, and your thinking ability. I use the clinical practice of cognitive behavioural therapy to help people regain healthy control over their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and reclaim a sense of influence over their life style and life situation's. Coaching you to refocus, set small daily goals, celebrate your successes, and learn new behavioral and thinking skills can take time but the good news is that once you have acquired these skills you have them for life.

There is still a lot of discussion out there about "overcoming" or "ending" depression, but at Allius Services we ask what if these symptoms are actually protective signs that are designed to let us know that something in our lives needs to change? Understanding depression as a symptom of withdrawal that comes from a place of protection, can better help us move toward living a life that feels more meaningful, rather than continuing to avoid or ignore the difficult thoughts and feelings that reinforce depression. New insights from neurobiology provides some answers and a compassionate understanding about what is happening when someone becomes depressed and how to re-engage with life again.

As someone who has a history of depression personally and intergenerationally, I am well aware of the great challenges and opportunities for growth that this experience can bring. For those struggling with depression, healing can feel elusive, as if nothing will ever work. It often requires a wider lens, an eye for patterns and a deeply supportive and holistic orientation to shift this dynamic. My approach comes from my years of experience moving through and finally out of my own depression and integrating the ancestral patterns that laid the foundation for it in my life. I now come to you with a wide-reaching tool kit to support you in your journey.

At the Centre For Expressive Therapy, I offer counselling to adults and children suffering from depression. I use Holistic Expressive Therapy that helps to further explore difficult issues that words sometimes cannot reach. Within the safety of the therapeutic relationship, images are created through drawing, writing, painting, collage, sand play, and photography. These images are then reflected upon for the purpose of finding solutions to underlying issues. My therapy methods help individuals of all ages to not only cope with their life challenges but to learn and grow from them.

The circumstances and issues that you are dealing with are unique to you, but you don't have to face them alone. Every individual has different experiences, perceptions, feelings, thoughts, beliefs, values, attitudes, cultural backgrounds and "upbringings". Counselling sessions are private and confidential, and can provide a way for you to explore your problems and really tune in to your feelings. This is an opportunity to speak freely about your circumstances and release pent up feelings, without having to worry about what others think or feel, and without receiving unwanted advise from family, friends or coworkers. At the root of the problem, there are very real, legitimate and understandable reasons for feeling the way you feel, thinking the way...(view profile to read more)

Depression can be experienced in a magnitude of ways and is often experienced differently by each individual. Symptoms may range from feeling increasingly irritable, experiencing a sense of emptiness and hopelessness, and an individual often will feel completely overwhelmed, losing interest in activities they once enjoyed. Depression may also be experienced physically. Physical symptoms may include, but are not limited to a lack of energy, problems sleeping, pronounced weight changes, and eventually, even serious illness. In cases of mild to moderate depression, there is an increasing amount of research supporting counselling as effective as medication in improving a person’s mood. Many clients have been referred to counselling by their family doctor when...(view profile to read more)
